SK Abolition, Politician's billboards and Barangay Polls among hot topics
Interior Secretary Jesse Robredo on Monday reiterated his call for the abolition of the Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) or the barangay (village-level) youth council, saying this would end “divisiveness” among the youth entering in politics.
Abolishing the SK council, he said, will also remove from the youth the culture of corruption that is usually associated with politics.
“Ang katunayan, ang nais sana natin ay matuto siya kung paano maglingkod hindi mamulitika. Yung lumang sistema palagay ko natuto siya mamulitika eh hindi siya natutong maglingkod talaga (The truth is we want them to learn how to serve, not politicize. With the old system, I think, they learn how to politicize but they do not learn how to really serve),” Robredo said.
Robredo submitted a proposed bill to Malacanang calling for the abolition of the SK council. Instead, Robredo is pushing for the election of just one youth representative, which will also be held coinciding with the barangay elections.

Allies of former President and incumbent Pampanga Rep. Gloria Macapagal Arroyo on Monday opposed the government’s plan to remove the politicians’ names on the billboards for infrastructure projects.
Zambales Rep. Ma. Milagros Magsaysay said billboards help the public identify the projects initiated by their congressmen using the PDAF.
“That is one form of transparency on our part. Also if the DPWH and the Aquino administration stop us from doing this how will they know where we put our PDAF. We can put it on top of the mountain and nobody will know," she said.
Minority to block 2010 barangay polls
The minority bloc in the House of Representatives is against the holding of the barangay (village-level) elections in October this year and vowed to block moves of allies of President Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III in the chamber to push through with it.
Said the scheduled barangay polls is too close to the recently-held May presidential elections and could strain not only the government coffers but the pockets of congressmen.
Zambales Representative Ma. Milagros Magsaysay said Malacanang’s allies in the chamber should not make it appear that they are already in agreement with the stance of the President.
She said Malacanang should wait for the decision of the committee on suffrage and electoral reforms on the matter.
The committee headed by Cavite Representative Elpidio Barzaga Jr. will begin hearing on various proposals to postpone the barangay elections on Wednesday.
